A manufacturing plant uses Lean process.
You plan to outsource a painting operation to a subcontracting vendor.
You create a service item named SP-01 to represent the painting service.
You need to create a subcontracting activity for the painting service.
Solution: 1.) Create a purchase agreement for the subcontracting vendor and add SP-01 as the painting service 2.) Create a vendor resource then create a work cell for outsourced painting and add the resource to the work cell 3.) Create a production flow process activity for the painting work cell and add the component to be painted as a picking activity 4.) Create a service term to tie the purchase agreement to the activity Does this solution meet the goal?

A. B.B.
The proposed solution to create a subcontracting activity for the painting service involves four steps:
Let's evaluate each step to determine if the solution meets the goal of creating a subcontracting activity for the painting service:
Create a purchase agreement for the subcontracting vendor and add SP-01 as the painting service: Creating a purchase agreement for the subcontracting vendor is a necessary step to establish the terms and conditions of the subcontracting agreement. Adding SP-01 as the painting service item ensures that the subcontracting vendor is contracted to provide painting services. This step is relevant and meets the goal of creating a subcontracting activity for the painting service.
Create a vendor resource then create a work cell for outsourced painting and add the resource to the work cell: Creating a vendor resource and a work cell for outsourced painting is another relevant step that allows the manufacturing plant to assign painting work to a specific vendor resource. Adding the vendor resource to the work cell ensures that the painting service is available as an option for painting activities. This step is relevant and meets the goal of creating a subcontracting activity for the painting service.
Create a production flow process activity for the painting work cell and add the component to be painted as a picking activity: Creating a production flow process activity for the painting work cell is a relevant step that allows the manufacturing plant to define the painting process. Adding the component to be painted as a picking activity ensures that the manufacturing plant knows which component needs to be painted. This step is relevant and meets the goal of creating a subcontracting activity for the painting service.
Create a service term to tie the purchase agreement to the activity: Creating a service term to tie the purchase agreement to the activity is a necessary step to ensure that the subcontracting vendor agrees to provide the painting service as per the purchase agreement. This step is relevant and meets the goal of creating a subcontracting activity for the painting service.
In conclusion, the proposed solution meets the goal of creating a subcontracting activity for the painting service, as all four steps are relevant and necessary for the subcontracting process. Therefore, the answer to this question is A. Yes.
